Karma Does Not Forget
Forget about karma being always a bitch. It is not.
Karma is often referred to as a bitch. This is because karma is usually equated with comeuppance.
But karma is not all about just deserts or retribution for something nasty done towards another.
There is bad karma but there is absolutely good karma. Come to think of it, there must be loads of super-good karma out there.
Personally, I think that there is much more of this — good karma — than the bad type. I’m not one to subscribe to some philosophers saying that human beings are “intrinsically evil”. For me, human beings are inherently good.
This is not me looking at humanity through rose-tinted glasses. Doing good, being good — there is nothing bad about this, especially when the good we do for another living being is from the heart. No expectations of receiving anything in return for the good we do for another.
Take a moment to think of the nice, unexpected things that dropped on your lap for something, even remotely unrelated to a good deed, you did long ago.
It is not surprising if you are unable to recall the deed, especially if it was spontaneous and done from the heart. You might not even regard the lucky break as good karma.
Karma is not always a bitch
For me, any little good thing that happens in our life is a blessing. A reward, if I may suggest, for something done in the past to benefit another with no thought of a recompense.
True, this advantage or good fortune may be seen as a result of one’s hard work. But isn’t it also true that not everyone who works hard for something achieves the intended result or receives something better?
Karma is not always a bitch. It could fracture one’s resolve, yes. It could disrupt one’s life, sure. Or, it could be just a hard lesson for us to do better next time.
Look at this bitchy karma, perhaps, as a wake-up call to stop being a pain in another living being’s behind.
Waiting for the most auspicious time
I could also say, even attest, that good karma does not forget. It may just be dilly-dallying, waiting for the right time to smile and drop a happy surprise on your lap.
Now, that would be grand!
